How do I prepare myself? Like I said, if I go by what the divorce law says I'd likely be giving her about 65% of my monthly income between child support and alamoney.

I think she's just comfortable now, and not seeing clearly how things would change if she left/we split. I currently pay about 3/4 of our house hold expenses, she pays for the car-payments, car insurance and monthly utility bills. We then take turns paying for weekly groceries or charge on VISA (which I pay).

I'm just scared that she has no idea how expensive it will be...even in a smaller house the expenses alone would be more than she makes!

I trust her when she says she doesn't want to hurt me (which seems crazy now) and that it's her choice so she doesn't expect me to support her. She wants me to be happy and find someone else and have means to have a good life.

As long as she doesn't have OM, then I really don't care about the money. I am here to support my kids bottom line.

Why does she seem to think this is all so easy? Is it purely emotion no logic at all?!?!?!
